The annual event of Intel Developer Forum (IDF) 2012 return so a variety of technologies Intel puts their future. The event was held in San Francisco, America.
Chief Product Officer of Intel said the Intel Core processor family Generation-4 has been designed from the start with considering mobility. Processor, codenamed Haswell, for example, has a power consumption is much lower than the previous generation. In particular tests the power requirement could be 20 times lower. Well, it's interesting because it is very efficient right?
Family Haswell for Ultrabook future will have the capability promised equal to or better than the armed Ivy Bridge. However, in terms of power requirements will be much better. Before the IDF, there is news that there is a processor with a Thermal Design Power (TDP) of 10W. This is lower than the previous generation has a TDP of 17W. The lower TDP, the more possible that the product is used in lightweight thin devices.
So, does this mean that Intel is ready to foray into mobile products like tablets or smartphones? The answer seems to still require considerable time. It is an Intel already used in some smartphones and tablet products. However, despite the existing products are not exactly "mainstream". In mobility, the platform is still the mainstay Intel Ultrabook.
One interesting thing, Intel Ultrabook on display in the title is not just a thin laptop. A wide variety of forms - also known as form factor - indicated. Starting from convertible type, can be transformed from a laptop to a tablet style; until detachable type, can be removed from the docking areas keyboard so that it becomes a separate unit.
